Looking Forward to Date Four

So last night was date three with Paul...and as with the two others it went fabulously!

Yesterday was a weird day for me to start with - got up ran some errands, came home, made some lunch and started watching a movie. It was around 3ish that I noticed I was freezing. Check the thermostat...57... Check furnace...not working. I called a few peeps and finally gave in and texted Paul. In between texts, my friend Richard called back and was in front of my house by the end of the conversation. By this time, thermostat reads 55! Paul texted back that he could come over at 5 to look at it... In the meantime, Richard diagnosed that it was the ignitor. So after his workout, Paul was nice enough to pick it up for me (he has friends!), come over at 6pm and install it. Final cost $38!

After Paul fixes me up, we head off to the Pistons Game which started at 8pm. Awesome seats, again. Probably about 10 rows back from the court kitty-corner off of one of the baskets. We walked around a bit, watched game, watched people, had a couple beers and shared a pretzel....then left with like a minute left to beat traffic in parking lot. :) After that we picked up a pizza and headed over to Paul's place. We watched three movies and wound up snuggling on the couch the rest of the night and into the morning.

I give Paul a lot of credit because he was a perfect gentlemen. I had told him that I wanted to take it slow because I liked him and hoped he could understand. He said yes and felt the same. This was on New Years Eve. (Oh, New Years Eve was date number two - Pistons game at 3pm, dinner and drinks at my fav restaurant, back to my place for drinks and peanut butter cookie baking and ringing in the new year)

It's a really GOOD feeling liking someone and knowing that they like you back because they SHOW it - not just by things they say, but by their actions as well. :) It makes me smile! :) And it makes me happy and optimistic...

Phewie on Drew! I hate to even admit that I have been missing him. Lord only knows why because he treated me like shit and lied to my face. Ah well, guess all wounds take a little time to heal.

Should I mention that Paul went to high school with Drew or rather Andy as he was known back then? Paul knows the whole story and think the wanker got what he deserved.

Seems all three dates I've had with Paul have been marathon dates - 9 hours first date, 11ish hours second date and third date 14 hours! Yowza! LOL!!!

...I wonder what date four will have in store for us...

All I know is I'm looking forward to it.
